The 2010 FIFA World Cup will be the 19th FIFA World Cup, an international tournament for football, that is scheduled to take place between 11 June and 11 July 2010 in South Africa.. South Africans all over the country are extremely motivated and excited by the prospect of staging the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
The tournament consists of two parts, the qualification phase and the final phase (officially called the World Cup Finals). The qualification phase, which currently take place over the three years preceding the Finals, is used to determine which teams qualify for the Finals. The current format of the World Cup South Africa Finals involves 32 teams competing for the title, at venues within the host nation (or nations) over a period of about a month. The World Cup Final in SA is the most widely-viewed sporting event in the world, with an estimated 715.1 million people watching the 2010 South Africa tournament final.
In the eighteen tournaments held, only seven nations have won the title. Brazil is the most successful World Cup team, having won the tournament five times. The current World Champions, Italy, follows with four titles, while Germany holds three. The other former champions are Uruguay (who won the inaugural tournament) and Argentina with two titles each, and England and France with one title each.
The most recent World Cup Finals were held in Germany, where Italy was crowned champion after beating France in the final. The next World Cup Finals will be held in South Africa, from June 11, 2010 to July 11, 2010, and the 2014 Finals will be held in Brazil.
Here's no doubt that the
FIFA World Cup
is the most expected sports event in the world.
Indeed, ever since the first tentative competition
in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA's (Fédération
Internationale de Football Association) flagship has
constantly grown in popularity and prestige.
A bunch of visionary French football administrators,
led in the 1920s by the creative Jules Rimet, are
credited with the original idea of bringing the
world's strongest national football teams together
to compete for the title of World Champions. The
original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and was
contested three times in the 1930s, before the
Second World War put a 12-year stop to this popular
tournament.
And when it resumed, the football World Cup rapidly
reached its undisputed status as the greatest single
sporting event of the modern world. Held since 1958
alternately in Europe and the Americas, the World
Cup broke new ground with the Executive Committee's
decision in May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as
co-hosts for the 2002 edition.
It's important to say that since 1930, the 16
tournaments have seen only seven different winners.
However, the FIFA World Cup has also been punctuated
by dramatic upsets that have helped create
footballing history - the United States defeating
England in 1950, North Korea's defeat of Italy in
1966, Cameroon's emergence in the 1980s and their
opening match defeat of the Argentinean cup-holders
in 1990....
Nowadays, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire planet
under its spell. The last World Cup Germany 2006 got
extraordinary numbers in terms of audience, breaking
many records.
And after this long way, the main goal of the FIFA
World Cup remains the same - promote the game, unite
the World, entertain people and make nations happy.
The Republic of South Africa (also known by other official names) is a country located at the southern tip of Africa. The South African coast stretches 2,798 kilometers (1,739 mi) and borders both the Atlantic and Indian oceans. To the north of South Africa lie Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland, while the Kingdom of Lesotho is an independent enclave surrounded by South African territory.
South Africa, with its rich history and multitude of cultures, is a land of possibility and opportunity. Its biggest asset is undoubtedly its diverse mix of people, proud of their heritage and the country's remarkable transition to a thriving democracy.
Africa was chosen as the host for the 2010 World Cup as part of a new policy to rotate the event between football confederations (which was later abandoned in October 2007).
Since democracy, South Africa has successfully hosted among others the Rugby World Cup in 1995, the African Cup of Nations in 1996, the All Africa Games in 1999 and the Cricket World Cup in 2003 and is ready to host a world-class FIFA World Cup™ in 2010
Italy conquer the world as Germany wins friends
Italy won their fourth world crown
in
Germany,
beating France on penalties in Berlin.
If Zinedine Zidane's red
card was the Final's defining image, Italy's triumph would
be remembered as a team effort with ten different
Azzurri players finding the net. It was also a special
month for Germany, the goals of Miroslav Klose helping
secure third place in a tournament memorable for the
festival mood across the host country.

A record total of 205 teams have entered the race for one of the 31 places at the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™. The preliminary phase, which began in the Oceanian Zone back in August 2007, is now in full swing, with only the Host Nation guaranteed a berth in world football's showpiece event. For World Cup 2010 finals tournament 32 teams will have competing. The 64 football matches of the 2010 FIFA World Cup will be played in nine cities of South Africa. 32 teams for the 2010 tournament will be the winners and runners up of the eight qualifying groups. These thirty two teams, divided equally into eight groups A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H each consisting of four teams. The groups are drawn up by the FIFA administration, again using seeding. The seeded teams being the host nations, the reigning champions, subject to qualification, and those with the best points per game coefficients over the qualifying phase of the tournament and the previous World Cup qualifying. Other finalists will be assigned to by means of a draw, using coefficients as a basis.
The eight groups are again played in a league format, where, in the 1st round, a team plays its opponents once each. Two teams that emerge with maximum points in each group progress to the 2nd round. The same points system is used (three points for a win, one point for a draw, no points for a defeat). A schedule for the worldcup group matches will be drawn up, but the last two matches in a group must kick off simultaneously. The winner and runner-up of each group progresses to the 2010 World Cup Quarter-finals, where a knockout system is used (the two teams play each other once, the winner progresses), this is used in all subsequent rounds as well. The winners of the World Cup quarter-finals matches progress to the 2010 World Cup Semi-finals, where the winners play in the 2010 World Cup Final. If in any of the knockout rounds after normal playing time, the scores are still equal, extra time and penalties are employed to separate the two teams. Matches are arranged so that there are always two games within a week, which is aimed at minimizing player travel time.Changing LINKS
